[Tikzdevice-bugs] tikz: remove "white frame" around plot?

[Matthieu Stigler]

Hi

I am using R 2.13 and tikzDevice 0.6.1 (see below for full sesionInfo).

Here would be full reproducible code:

library(ggplot2)
library(tikzDevice)

part1_main70bis<-rgb(0.05,0.4,0.5,maxColorValue=1)
theme_update(
  plot.background = theme_rect(fill = part1_main70bis, 
colour=part1_main70bis)
)
options(tikzLatexPackages=c("\\usepackage{tikz}","\\usepackage{color}\n\\definecolor{part1}{rgb}{0.05,0.4,0.5}\n\\pagecolor{part1}\n"))
tikz(standAlone=TRUE)
qplot(1,1)
dev.off()

It is this white border I would like to remove, do you see it? The 
guilty line is this one (line 13):
% \fill[color=fillColor,] (0,0) rectangle (505.89,505.89);

Thanks!

Matthieu
